Time Flies

This little one (GB#1) is 11 months old.
I don't think that's really possible.
But seriously, it is possible.  Time flies.

See you soon,
Sharon

June Photo Challenge Wrap Up

Day 27 of the June Challenge:  Your Weakness
Quilt show vendors!  I did pretty well on the restraint this time. 
I managed to get away with one book, one pattern, a little fabric, a charm pack, and some snaps. 
The large chunks are for a workshop I will be attending in October.
Day 28 of the June Challenge:  Transportation 
We were back at the prairie on Friday night.  This is the available transportation for those who would rather not walk from their parking spots to the concert site.
Day 29 of the June Challenge:  Trees
Instead of showing you a picture of the whole tree, I decided to lean against the base of the tree and point the camera up.  I like the glow and leaf definition that resulted.
And wrapping things up for the month of June...
Day 30:  Family 
It would have been too predictable for me to take a picture of my children or grandchildren for this assignment, so I took a picture of a picture that hangs in my entryway.  This is me with my siblings.  I am the one on the far right with the curls who can't seem to stand still for the photo.  

This challenge has been fun for me.  I hope you have enjoyed it too.  Coming soon I will be revealing the answer to the What Is It? question, sharing a few photos from a trip to Florida in April, and much more.

See you soon,
Sharon

Picking Favorites

Day 26 of the June Challenge:  Your Favorite Color

I have to tell you that I love color.  
If you asked someone who knows me what my favorite color is, they might say red (I do love red), or orange (a current favorite), or spring green.  
I own every color of Fiesta dinnerware that is currently or recently available just so I can change them out with the seasons and holidays.  
It would really be impossible to pick an actual favorite so for this assignment I am going to go way back to my childhood days and pick blue.  
Blue was always my favorite color growing up.  To this day it still makes me happy.  
I love blue and white dishes and blue and white quilts.  
So I guess you could say that my lasting favorite color is blue.

More tomorrow,
Sharon

On a Hot Day

Day 25 of the June Challenge:  Citrus

Lemon as a garnish.
Just what was needed on a hot summer evening.

Keeping cool,

Love

Day 24 of the June Challenge:  Love

Again, this was a really tough one.  Besides all the people in my life that I love,
what could I pick for this subject?
I could pick fabric or yarn, quilts or knitting.  I could pick chocolate or ice cream.
But ultimately I chose my sewing machine.  Without it I would be lost. 
I have been sewing since I was a very young girl and cannot imagine a life without my machine.
I do love it. 

See you tomorrow,
Sharon
